I liked the fact that you guys do your training in small groups, easier to learn the information and to ask question.

Lori was very knowledgeable! She answered all my questions beyond the course outline. She was patient and gladly willing to show me concrete examples of what the software could do and made recommendations of use based on my personal needs.

Since taking this course, I have been practicing my new knowledge and skills on a daily basis. I can honestly say now, I much rather work in Word then WordPerfect.

Excellent trainer, very knowledgable and well spoken. Would love to have her again. I learned many new applications.

Everything met my expectations for the one-day session.

The course and the trainer met all of my expectations. The instructior was very knowledgeable and friendly. Once thing that I would like to suggest is for the provider to ensure that all participants are clearly notified not to wear scented products on the day of the training. Being in a small classroom space, surrounded by overpowering scents was very distracting and made it difficult to breathe.

The instructor easily adapted to special requests that were above and beyond what was listing in the course offering. A couple of us wanted to know more about MS Project 2010 and, when it was not at all inconvenient to the other participants, she walked us through some of the differences. This added a lot of value to the course. Her confidence with the material was contagious.

I love teaching method, it is very affordable.

The only issue was the instructor, although EXTREMELY knowledgeable, didn't follow the Course Material at all. In fact I didn't even do a single exercise on the workstation. Essentially he used the White Board and showed examples (not in course material), and we discussed the nuances of "simple" SQL. Again, the instructor was extremely knowledgeable but there was absolutely no hands on (ie workstation etc)

Thank you for an enjoyable day of learning. Pierre was a great help. He answered our questions, and was very patient when we did not understand. Thank you again for an enjoyable learning experience.

Reviewed by Jeanne M. 2012

   

Although the course information was relevant to the specific material - some basic Windows commands should not be necessary to be reiterated to students in class such as 'Cut and Paste' and 'Save File As'. This takes away valuable time to the specific subject course.

The course was great! Enjoyable and everything it said it would be.

I was the only participant so received one on one training. With a group you usually do exercises from a workbook which would have been beneficial to me but that didn't happen with one on one training. I was shown how to do something and then asked to do it too rather than starting an exercise from scratch in a workbook and having to figure it out myself.

No, all good to me !

An excellent faclity located in the heart of downtown Ottawa. Friendly instructor and staff. As this was a one on one instructional situation, the instructor tailored the workshop to my needs. She covered every one of the twenty-two topics that I had requested and sent via email the week previous. I would recommend this school to anyone needing to learn or augment their computer skills.

Our instructor was absolutely a delight. It made learning something that could have been boring in to something very fun and interesting. Dracy Whyte was great as a teacher!

We had individual projects with specific questions and the instructor was very flexible in the course presentation to address our issues.

We had the advantage of a very small class and very attentive lecturer to answer individual's questions

Great beginning for me.... I would have liked a longer basic course to cover some text data entry for templates, rather than just calculations...

Reviewed by Evelyn D. 2012

   

Would have preferred some practical exercises with the instructor going around and seeing if we understood the training. eg. complete a travel claim sheet. There were only 5 participants to probably would have been a good time to wander around the class and see how we were doing. Difficult to see the screen, esp in the a.m. with the sun hitting it.

I had been using Word 2003 for several years. My software was recently upgraded to Word 2007. I found this course extremely interesting and useful for me. Sometimes, there are some really small tricks that can help immensely for our day-to-day work. The instructor was very knowledgeable and had a great personnality. This is one of the best courses I've taken and I've taken many... Marc

I found the instructor at CompuEase "Desiree" very patient and helpful! She is very knowledgeable and takes the time to help me through this training - especially since I've never used it before. Thank you! Connie

This was an awesome course. The trainer was fabulous, very hands on. I would highly recommend.

Reviewed by Judy K. 2011

   

The trainer mentioned that I could retake the course for free and that this is something that is normally offered there. I might do that because it was an off day for me. I was feeling tired and my concentration was a bit off. The trainer also was having an off day because of a back injury. I have taken training with Compuease before and I find it is a friendly environment and the trainers are excellent.

I was trully satisfied with the services at CompuEase. I was lucky enought to receive a one on one training with no else then the founder, who is very knowledgeable. I will definitely watch out for future courses.
